Working with XTensions sets (Windows only)
If you find that you frequently enable and disable particular groups of XTensions
modules, you can create an XTensions set that makes it easy to switch between these
groups.
To create an XTensions group, first display the XTensions Manager dialog box (Utilities
menu) and enable the XTensions modules you want in the group. Then click Save As
and enter a name for the group. When you want to switch to this group, simply display
the XTensions Manager dialog box and choose the group's name from the Set
drop-down menu.
You can also import and export XTensions sets with the Import and Export buttons,
for situations where you want to share them with other users.
Item Styles XTensions software
Item Styles lets you save collections of item attributes — including color, frame style,
line width, picture scale, and text inset — as named styles that you can apply from a
palette.
Item Styles XTensions software adds the Item Styles palette (Window > Item Styles),
the Edit Item Styles dialog box (Edit > Item Styles), and the Item Styles Usage dialog
box (Utilities > Item Styles Usage).
Item Styles do not affect locked attributes of items (position, story, or picture). For
example, if you apply an Item Style to an item whose position is locked (Item > Lock >
Position), the item will not move according to any X, Y values specified in the Item
Style. When the item is selected, the name of its Item Style will display with a + next
to the name.
Do not use Item Styles with the Shared Content and Composition Zones features.
Item Styles does not support tables.
Using the Item Styles palette
To apply an Item Style to all selected items, click the Item Style's name in the Item
Styles palette. The New and Delete buttons let you add and delete Item Styles.
The Update button lets you update an item style definition based on local changes
to the applied item style.
You can also apply an Item Style to selected items by choosing the Item Style name
from the Style > Item Styles submenu.
